The warm acidic nature of pet urine stains provides the ideal environment for bacteria to grow and flourish.   As the urine dries, it turns to alkaline and becomes virtually impossible to remove yourself.  These acidic properties, along with the ammonia in the urine, also cause your carpet to stain and discolor.  And if not treated properly, pet odors can infiltrate your entire home and negatively affect your quality of life, health, and happiness.  The good news is that the pet stain and odor removal experts at Lone Star Carpet Care in San Antonio can professionally treat your carpet to remove discoloration, neutralize odors, and sanitize the area.

Our carpet cleaning experts will locate your problem areas with a black light, then treat your carpet with state-of-the-art enzymes designed to eliminate offensive pet odors at their source.  Then, our specially trained techs will employ our hot water extraction carpet steam cleaning process to kill any bacteria and sanitize your carpet -- ensuring a true, deep clean.

Even the most rule-abiding pet in the world can sometimes act inappropriately. There's something about animals' nature that we will never understand. What's easy to understand, however, is the difficulty of dealing with a mess your pet has made – especially on fabric.

When the pet goes no-no on hard surfaces, the solution is fairly straightforward, and there's rarely any damage done. Carpets and upholstery are a different story. Most home owners think of a spill strictly in terms of the surface area: once the surface is clean, the rest of the fabric must be as well.

Pet Stains and Pet Odors

How far this is from the truth becomes most evident in the case of pet stains. You'll scrub out the stain, then leave the area feeling like you've done a good job. Soon enough, you'll realize your problems are just starting – the odor will become apparent, leaving you at a loss when trying to figure out what to do. If you've had this happen to you already, you probably tried applying some deodorant or perfume, only to find out that this made the situation go from bad to worse.

The mechanics behind why pet odor is so persistent aren't difficult to understand: there aren't many substances less pleasant to our nostrils than what our pets sometimes leave behind for us in the worst places. The particles make their way deep into the fabric, becoming hard to reach through normal means and even harder to fully eliminate.

There's also the issue of time: the longer you leave a pet stain unattended by a professional cleaner, the greater the risk that the fabric will end up suffering permanent damage. Even waiting a day or two to call us can limit our options, but it's still better than ignoring the issue and hoping it will go away.

When we get to the scene, we'll first establish the thickness of the fabric as well as the material. If you've had some unpleasant experiences with pet stains, you'll know that odor sticks around incredibly long in upholstery or mattresses – much longer than on clothes or even carpets. This is partially because upholstery is harder to clean in general, but also because it's so much thicker, giving the odor-carrying particles plenty of room to settle down.There are a few different modes of operation depending on the severity and scope of the incident, as well as the amount of time that passed since it happened. We might start things off with a hot water extraction, especially if there's staining present. Our bread and butter will be a chemical left on the affected area that penetrates through layers of fabric and eliminates the causes of odor. In the cases of odor that's hard to pinpoint, we might need to turn to ultraviolet lighting to find out which parts of the fabric have been affected. Once the odor's gone, the upholstery or carpet will be deodorized, replacing the bad smell with a pleasant one. Before you know it, the duress you've endured because of pet odor will be a distant memory.
